The rate of heat conduction out of a window on a winter day is rapid enough to chill the air next to it. To see just how rapidly the windows transfer heat by conduction, calculate the rate of conduction in watts through a 3.00m2 window that is 0.635 cm thick (1/4 in) if the temperatures of the inner and outer surfaces are 5.00C and 10.0C, respectively. This rapid rate will not be maintainedthe inner surface will cool, and even result in frost formation.
Suppose you walk into a sauna that has an ambient temperature of 50.0C. (a) Calculate the rate of heat transfer to you by radiation given your skin temperature is 37.0C, the emissivity of skin is 0.98, and the surface area of your body is 1.50m2. (b) If all other forms of heat transfer are balanced (the net heat transfer is zero), at what rate will your body temperature increase if your mass is 75.0 kg?
The formation of condensation on a glass of ice water causes the ice to melt faster than it would otherwise. If 8.00 g of condensation forms on a glass containing both water and 200 g of ice, how many grams of the ice will melt as a result? Assume no other heat transfer occurs.
For the human body, what is the rate of heat transfer by conduction through the body’s tissue with the following conditions: the tissue thickness is 3.00 cm, the change in temperature is 2.00C, and the skin area is 1.50m2. How does this compare with the average heat transfer rate to the body resulting from an energy intake of about 2400 kcal per day? (No exercise is included.)
The rate of heat conduction out of a window on a winter day is rapid enough to chill the air next to it To see just how rapidly the windows transfer heat by conduction, calculate the rate of conduction in watts through a 3.00-m2 window that is 0.634 cm thick (1/4 in.) if the temperatures of the inner and outer surfaces are 5.00 and 10.0 , respectively. (This rapid rate will not be maintained—the inner surface will cool, even to the point of frost formation.)
When a cold alcohol thermometer is placed in a hot liquid, the column of alcohol goes down slightly before going up. Explain why.
What are the main methods of heat transfer front the hot core of Earth to its surface? From Earth's surface to outer space? When our bodies get too warm, they respond by sweating and increasing blood circulation to the surface to transfer thermal energy away from the care. What effect will this have on a person in at 40.0C hot tub? Figure 14.30 shows a cutaway drawing of a thermos battle (also known as a Dewar flask), which is a device designed specifically to slow down all terms at heat transfer. Explain the functions of the various parts, such as the vacuum, the silvering of the walls, the thin-walled long glass neck, the rubber support, the air layer, and the stopper. Figure 14.30 The construction of a thermos bottle is designed to inhibit all methods of heat transfer.
When a driver brakes an automobile, the friction between the brake drams and the brake shoes converts the cars kinetic energy to thermal energy. If a 1 500-kg automobile traveling at 30 m/s comes to a halt, how much does the temperature rise in each of the four 8.0-kg iron brake drums? (The specific heat of iron is 448J/kg C.)
Suppose you stand with one foot on ceramic flooring and one foot on a wool carpet, making contact over an area of 80.0cm2 with each foot. Both the ceramic and the carpet are 2.00 cm thick and are 10.0C on their bottom sides. At what rate must heat transfer occur from each foot to keep the top of the ceramic and carpet at 33.0C ?
In winters, if is often warmer in San Francisco than in nearby Sacramento, 150 km inland. In summers, it is nearly always hotter in Sacramento. Explain how the bodies of water surrounding San Francisco moderate its extreme temperatures.
Why does condensation from most rapidly on the coldest object in a roomfor example, on a glass of ice water?
A 0.250kg aluminum bowl holding 0.800 kg of soup at 25.0C is placed in a freezer. What is the final temperature if 377 kJ of energy is transferred from the bowl and soup, assuming the soup's thermal properties are the same as that of water? Explicitly show how you follow the steps in ProblemSolving Strategies for the Effects of Heat Transfer.
